how to start a SNG journey?

Hi guys, I've decided to start my poker journey as a SNG player...However I'm not entirely sure how to go about it. So what I'm after really is a couple of points of what I should be doing, and what I could use as my goals.

I'm going to read all the articles, I should be Gold in a couple of hours (thanks to some last minute grinding) so all the Basic, Bronze, Silver and Gold Articles I plan to read. And start posting hands in the evaluation forum.

Anything else I should be doing (e.g. purchasing PT3 or anything) to help me in the long run?

SNG Wizard is a good tool once you can adjust the ranges to reflect how your opponents play. However, the default ranges are quite bad, and you need experience to adjust the ranges to more reasonable ones.

Hold'em Manager and PT3 are great tools both for tracking your overall play and for producing a HUD which tells you how each opponent has been playing.

Bankroll management is for winning players. When you start out, you should not assume that you are a winning player. You have a budget not a bankroll. Go ahead and play at the lowest real money level even if you have a balance that would make an expert safe at higher levels.

I don't think this discussion should get sidetracked into one about bankroll management. Bankroll management is like crossing the street. If you do it badly, you might get hurt, but you don't succeed in life by crossing the street well. It is far more important to focus on learning to play winning poker than to try to use bankroll management systems which fit established winning players, not beginners. Beginners have budgets, not bankrolls.

I've recently started bankroll building challenge for me on Ongame. Started with $250 (75 BIs for $3.3s) with first deposit bonus of 200%. Anyone wanna do the same of just follow, check out my blog. Link below.
